Frankly, the biggest global tragedy is that the surf at Cerritos is calling your name, and until the concrete truck shows up, all this geopolitical nonsense is just background noise for a good day of salt-choked indifference.
A financial planner got existential while meeting a Gen Z client, wondering if civilization will even be around for retirement.

Frankly, none of it compares to the absolute nightmare that is the La Paz-to-Todos Santos stretch of road, which remains suspiciously unfinished.
Turns out, renaming national culture to cater to porn isn't so radical. A truly bipartisan move for arts funding.
